Bone & Marrow
Matís operates a so-called food workshop. The food factory is in fact a kitchen and processing facility with a variety of equipment, appliances and utensils available so that it is possible to carry out a variety of food processing in the facility. Processing may take place provided that it has obtained the required operating license or certification.
Two of the entrepreneurs who have worked on their projects at Matarsmiðjan are Jón Örvar G. Jónsson and Björk Harðardóttir at the company Bone & Marrow ehf.
Jón Örvar G. Jónsson and Björk Harðardóttir are behind the project. They had both been working on issues related to agriculture, food and the environment for years but decided to combine their interests under one hat with the establishment of Bone & Marrow ehf. The project had been in development for several years and Björk had extensive experience in food production, cooking and experience catering, but Jón Örvar was interested in food, agriculture and land use. They wanted to start a food company with the aim of nourishing and strengthening the man, both mentally and physically, in the best possible way and at the same time reducing food waste.
The company's products are, on the one hand, bone extract and, on the other hand, baptized butter. Bone & Marrow's motto is ancient nutrition for the modern man and this refers to the idea that many things in the environment of our ancestors and mothers, including nutrition, have a full meaning for the modern man. They therefore strive to deliver food that is at once simple, clean and free of all additives and fillers, to the people of Iceland. The bone extract is produced from Icelandic high-quality animal bones, vegetables, herbs and water. It is especially the health of the bone extract that makes it desirable and its consumption is believed to strengthen the skin, digestion and joints. The content of the baptized butter is only Icelandic, unsalted butter. During production, water, milk sugar and milk protein are mostly removed from the butter, leaving almost pure milk fat.
Today, there are two types of bone extract for sale in the various stores, namely lamb and beef bone extract. It is ideal to drink the broth hot instead of coffee or tea, but it can also be used as a protein drink after exercise or in various dishes such as soups, sauces and stews. The baptized butter can be obtained either pure or with turmeric. It has a sweet caramel flavor and is suitable as a side dish and in all cuisine. It has a high melting point (250 ° C) so it is very nice to fry or bake from it.
